Pre-match views from the Match Thread:
Red Wimp: “I often read on here of must-win games which aren’t, but I’m going to declare this is a must-win game. Even though technically a draw still keeps the season alive, would surely leave too much in the lap of the gods.”
Scotimp: “It genuinely is a must-win game for once.
A win puts us right back in the mix with two games to go – it would also boost our goal-difference advantage over Oxford by making theirs worse.
Jovon Makama will make his 50th appearance for the club if he plays at some point tonight; he has scored 4 goals in 49 games to date.”
Gaz_Imp: “Can’t make mind up if this will be a tense game with 1 goal in it or two sides throwing caution to the wind.”
